Hi,
I am maintaining w-scan-cpp and I am looking for your opinion on how should I
proceed with the following issues I am facing:
vdr-plugin-wirbelscan
This plugin was introduced in experimental, never reached unstable, was
reintroduced to experimental from a different DD and now it is orphaned. I have
updated https://salsa.debian.org/vdr-team/vdr-plugin-wirbelscan with the latest
version of plugin and would be willing to upload to mentors.d.n but I need
sponsorship, except if anyone else is willing to upload to unstable.
vdr-plugin-satip
The version of this plugin in Debian is pretty old. The upstream developer has
not made any work on the plugin for over 4 years,
https://github.com/rofafor/vdr-plugin-satip/issues/86
also wirbel's fork is mentioned at the official VDR plugins page:
https://vdr-projects.github.io/
Since both of these plugins are required for building w-scan-cpp for now I
download newer versions as components but would be easier and more Debian
friendly to use the above plugins from Debian archive.
Looking forward for your reply!
BR
Apostolos
